Along The River Frome - Part One

Part One of this, the second programme in our 'River' series, concentrates on the beautiful Frome Valley from Evershot, the second highest village in Dorset, down through Maiden Newton and on to the County town of Dorchester. We venture along tributaries and explore some of Dorset's little gems including Cerne Abbas and Sydling St. Nicholas as well as visiting Maiden Castle and the Roman Aquaduct at Poundbury. A beautiful clear chalk river, it is little surprise to learn that Frome means 'Fine' or 'Fair'.
